Most flight operations are slow to change procedures or update systems unless forced to do so. It is an understandable consequence of managing any operation. There is a comfort level in maintaining the status quo, and a cost involved in making changes. If the system in place seems to work, why change?

What is difficult to quantify is the cost incurred by not updating systems. In today's' environment aviation is undergoing a number of changes from security concerns to passenger reporting as well as "Hot Items" from the FAA and NTSB (such as runway incursions). The number one priority for government agencies is to ensure safety and compliance with applicable regulations. It is crucial to ensure flight operations are conducted to the high level of safety. Flight departments that incorporate the latest procedures and techniques demonstrate they are interested in delivering the best product and safest services possible. In the long run this has translated to a more efficient, cost effective and safe operation.
